One hundred millions of days, or two Inin-broughf into uss ana adopted in an age aixl generation dred and seventy-six thousand1 one hundred and twelve whose systems ol business, education, and enterprise were as much' adopted to the present age and genera- tion as tile present banking system now is. Improve- ments i agriculture, commerce, anJ manufactures, and the developments of scienco, are daily presenting new incentives to enterprise and liiuustry in the van- ous avoeations of life, while thatsystem by which the medium of all business transactions is furnished re- mains as it was fixed and used whore Iho customs and laws were a bar to wholesome competition, Whatever pretended, improvements have been made upon lb Venitiant Senoesn, or (later; Amsterdam system o plan, as exemplified in the present or Eng- lisli system, have only, in their operation, taken from the primitive system its best features, and placed mero stiblerfuges in their stead. When paper was first m ttituted, it was the result ol necessity and require- ments of eonvenience, in the transmission of the means of payment, from one point to another, with the greatest possible safely and facility. I need not state that organized hands of brigands made the first J.l. I 0 :! l !l necessary,. aitu uie supply oi armies aornau re.uireu the latter. Thus,. Iben, originated the use and circo- lation of t aper representative of property, which, while a true representative, possessed all the value of the original, improved by whatever facility in trans- mission its nature was endowed with. Nor were theso the only purposes a paper medium has been found ca- pablo of truly subserving: it has been found capable, and may safely servo to prevent revolutions and" re- vulsions in the monetary world, by affording an ex- pansive or contractive medium, adapting itself in aiinntity, williout change in value, to any increase or epression in the business demands of a country. I am aware all will say this is the great object so do- sirable to be accomplished: and I will say here, and prove it, that snch a medium can only be furnished through a paper representative, of a bona Rile princi- pal, capable of prompt redemption. 1 say a paper medium only is capable ol expansion and contraction, because the metallic medium always has, from its in- stittition, changed fljuanlity for value with an increase or decrease of demand1. Proofs of this assertion are in the possession of every business man of onr eoun- try: the Romans reduced Ihe value of their coin call- ed an ass, which, weighing one pound, was, during a piessure, reduced to the weight of a single ounce, and yet retained the value of tho pound. Even at this hour, coin and bullion bear a higher price here and in New York than a month ago, leaving an amount to nay a debt sow it oould not have then done. WlionI speak of the principle of banking, I mean tho issuing s repretcntativc of actually valuable, avail- able property, redeemable on demand. When I speak of a system of banking, I mean the mode or fashion undor this principle. When I speak of tlie subler- fuges of the English system, 1 mean tho issuing of s representative as a circulating medium by legal privil- egc, without any principal, or ability lo redeem when demanded, lea-sing the holder liable to loss by failure or depreciation; for hy that system, (which !b our present one,) Ihe luws permit the issuing of a greater amount of representative than it requires actual princi- pal; thus leaving the medium subject to fluctuations from two causes, first, from an inorease or diminution of the quantity, the valuo varies; second, the want of proper and certain ultimate security, brings the interest and safety of the hill holder constantly in conflict with the cupidity ol tho banner, prodocing pressures and panics, and those alternative floods and scarcity ofcir- dilating medium so injurious to legitimate business and ruinous to the enterprising portion of men; rob- bing industry ofits reward, and leaving useful acquire- ments in the arts, sciences, or literature, unemployed; prostrating confidence in each other, and breaking down nil barriers to vice and licentiousness; leaving a circulating medium, can he safely lo all furnished, t virtue and morality to doubtfully atrtigglo for a fool- revulsion, ruinous in its effects and disastrous in con-hold among men. All know this effect; all anknowl- sequences, must soon ensue) or the people of Ohio edge the cause; all would remedy tliese evils; and b come hewers of wood and drawers of water, for nearly all differ as to the specfic mode of reform. By those of whunv she hi now the envied competitor In divesting ourselves of all prejudice and personal in- the advancement of Ihoseiustixntion which make men terest, we may, alter takings comprehensive view of wiser, better, and happier. Y, rthout it, every inccn-our whole country, and contrasting its form of govern- live lo industry and enterprise is withdrawn, the ai nicnt, the nature and habits of its population, ks clr- cumulated produce of years of labor and frugality is male, soil, and immense internal resources, form some reduced within the grasp of those very monopolies, estimate of the quantity and quality of business medi- against which tqwtl rightt has so long and unequally urn required for carrying on and' protecting the inter- waged her unceasing war, and for the final overthrow esls and objects of the most active and ingenious of which, she now calls all who will strike for De-people on the globe; a peoplo whoso enterprise) and mnrrney to her standard.

Legislatures, as well as individuals, in a few years past, have been enamored wilh the policy of borrowing money abroad in order to briiio- in foreiitn capital, as though it was a clear gain, forgetting that Iheso debts I aro compounding thouvsilvi's into a rum- (jus burthen, requinr for their support the surplus-products of onr Stated Dot further, suppose our 8tate debt for the last ten years has been five millions, we have in thai time borrowed from yesr to year the money to pay the interest with, which with the attendant expenses has compounded the principal. Now if we ntireue the same policy for Iho next ten years, and in the same way borrow for present and future demands, who can say what our obligations to foreigners will be in 18501 fifty millions at lenst. What is to repay this debt? actual surplus produce of labor. Let men one year, being the whole ol lire actnal laboring portion of our population. When these debts are created!, what 3o we actually get in lieu! Why, many will say, we get money to cany on our public improvements anrf pay interest. Let us see: uur commissioners iransterttio stock" and receive permission to draw on the purchasers; they sell their drafts in Now York, and gel permission to draw on the purchaser there; they again sell their drafts to banks fn this Slate for their bills, which are used in carrying on the objects of the roan. These stocKs, then, were considered, as they are-, the best se- euritiesof onr country; and among the stocks of for- oign markets, those of Ohio are pre-eminent in credit, What did we actually get for ours! Nothing but our own paper after all; and yet, under our present sys- tern it was the only alternative, being art best an ex- change of credit, leaving ourselves burdened with the interest of the amount of tlie trade. By this stock trailing, we are yet governed in our essential intcrosts hy foreigners; fur the amount of interest annually go- : . ,. . J ing ih oi our country, oy compounder against us, loaves the monetary governnrrnnt of onr country in their hands. Our General Government hi composed of three distinct and separate powers, viz: Tlie politi- cal, the monetary, and the religious. An union of these tends to aristocracy and monarchy. Iiy plac- ing her agents in Wall slreet, England hag furnished facilities and credit with which her iwinufar-tiires have been sent into the remotest corners of oht country; and our State stocks, after various changes, have been the payment received. Whenever the stocks crentcd failed to-conae up to tins excess of manufactures which she has sent us over and above our experts, her emis- sarics, guidrng with marked hands the very councils of our country, have produced another batch, adding to her power for accomplishing new schemes and designs, Let thoso who doubt this look at her interconrse with old Spain; herself bankrupt, using her bankruptcy to suck the lite-blood ol those she consorts with. Dona- parte was the only power which over truely understood and evaded her wily schemes in finance. "Prance," said he, "mtrst make her currency as cheap as her neighbor's, in order lo be independent and compete with them." Volumes might be written, filled with facts upon this, by far, the most interesting anbject be- fore Ihe country. Had we never sent abroad our obli- gallons, and had we not imported more as a nation than we exported, then our great public improvements would have been a monument of our industry and en terprise. But viewing them as the medium through which we are increasing a foreign debt, they contain but little applause for our financial State policy, Ohio, however, has only followed other older States in thus pulling into the hands of foreigners the most ef- ficient and active power of our country that of regu- rating credit and currency. Vet we have still the power and' means of remedy, as I shall endeavor to show, bv imitating those States in the proper reform. The subject of finance, and a cfrcnruling medium for tho transaction of business, at this lime claims the disinterested action of all who feel an interest in the welfare and prosperity of otti citizens or State, and renders a minute and thorough investigation, with prompt decision, obligatory, In order to correct and judicious action, our present situation and prospects for tho fiiluro must go far in determining a decision still keeping in view that re- firm is a stepping-stone to peritenon, Tlie business interests, to be consulted in the pas- sageofa properly restricted generallawupon banking, are diffused throughout all departments, extending intj our domestic and social relativjirs, of every nature. Without some better and mors beneficial system than the present, by which a representative of property, as ' lending for plunder and power among the wreck of nations, will scarcely allow us to sit in ppntter beneath our own ,),. nn& fi ne mp-, prepared to protect Iheir fruit. Should England go into a war with equal powers, her resources, now difTusrd through our country, would at once be drawn from us; and Ihe blTuct of such a measure may be but partially estimnt- ett hy the result which I demand for payment cf bil- ,nce, bj onr importers- produced year ago. The imprtpr, compelled payment from the Jobbers; lo mpet it, the Jobbers despatched their agents to their customers throughout the country, the country mcr- chanl, were compelled to call upon their customers; hrt ,(,, 011r people made up I general tribute to Eng. an j ) ,,.,, ror trumpery and gewgaws.

In nrranglne the proposition or law, herewith pro- sented for the consideration nnd correction of your lion- eiectorn 01 mm. ortiir, anu rniner limn a pmsiisin uenin would leave them to that inglorious dissolution which competition must surely bring them, Differing, as this proposed system does, from all others extant, the term " State Banking System of uiuo lias be I been donned most appropriate; and refer. ence to, Bnd'partial'oxplanalion of, the sections thereof, will tot, it is hoped) incur the charge of verbosity or egotism in one whose desire is the " greatest good to trie greatest number." Sec. 1: In tRis section hi provided Ihe appointment of Bank Commissioners, and theirdbliee defined, and security to be given. - ' Sec. 3 contains further duties and powers of ths commissioners. Sec. 3 provides- for the preparation, by the commissioners, of all' the circulating bills to be issued. By this, all the bills will be alike of each denomination, and soon almost every person' who handles money will become acquainted with it, and capable of easily detecting eounterfeils; for it is only by custom and acquaintance with general appearance that the best judges become qualified. bee. 4 is bnt an extension ot section three B description of the bills.. . Sec. 5 defines-how the bills shell be countersigned, leaving the designation of the person or officer for that duty to the amendments to be mado. It provides for numbering and registering all lite bills called fur Hi the duplicate certificates of the commissioners, by which the certificate, in the bonds of the institution, Is to guard against frauds, should Ihe officer, deputed to counter sign the bills, attempt to oonnterteK the tilling up; it also defines that the security given to Ihe State shall be in real estate or Ohio State stocks,. actually transferred lo the State for redemption of the bills only; and defines punishment for malfeaname. Sec. 6: This section defines further duties of the commissioners, in the furnishing certificates of the amount schedule received.. Also, that thsy shall deliver, at the same time,. State bonds .to-half the amount of land conveyed,, which bonds can only be legally transferred by the institution in redemption of circulating bills, when acceptable to the holder; it fixes the interest on those bonds at seven per cent, per annum. By this, it will be perceived, those bonds will be better to redeem wilh, in Now-York, when required; than specie in the vaults;, for a bank can assign them for any given time agreed upon, and redeem them at seven per cent., or Ihey may conditionally assign them, and leave them only to bo affecled by aa accumulation of bills; it will be perceived, that this arrangement will always ftirnisli the merchant a cheap exchange on New-Tiork, and make Ohio money at par there. Sec. 7 defines tho inoipicnt stops for an institution; notice; what to contain; and fifty thousand dollars the least capital ol a bank. r-.ee. a renin res certificate ot printer ol notice. Iiy using the schedule, which is reiitiired to be made as a modo of conveyance, much' labor and oxpense will be saved in making and recording deeds. The value of Ihe land, being that of tho oounty assessors, will be permanent security, in most cases, for five times the amount, as the cupidity of the owners, since its list- nil and valuation, has been exerted upon succeeding assessors to procure a low appraisal to lessen taxes. Sec. 9 provides a checK against truss cnrtilica.es ol auditors, by bringing ihoso certificates under ihe recorder's comparison wilh trie records of the county; and the county clerk can ascertain if any error exist or udzmnnts be standing, and have tho schedtilo cor rected before recording, and lilies to be examined by the board. Sec. 10 defines the duties of Iho officer or person who shall countersign the circulating bills, and deliver them lo tho holder of Iho certificate of the commis sioners, obtained on deposit of ihe schedule, and also countersign and return the State bonds presented with said cerlifieaie of the board, and give a certificate, authorizing Ihe commencement of business. Sec. II defines the powors and privileges of the in stitutions; what they mny and may not do; defines, in blank, what interest they may take; tells what they may deal in; but shall not put in circulation bills of oaiiss or persons out oi nits apaie. mis provision will protect the people from impositions in foreign paper; if the banks choose to take foreign paper, they can only give currency to it in that way, and can have lit tle inducement to Ihe circulution or money tor a sesson, to be afterwards shaved by the brokers, to the loss of the small holder generally. This is one of the most essential points in which tho people have a right, and aro expecting, to be protected. fee. vi providos now uie oni3 snail be procured and paid for. Sec. 13 provides for winding uirmstitnuons wnicn fail to redeem on presentation; sbows what process after a protest; that the safety fund shall redeem the bills of o failed bank; that tlie property pledged, and stocks sold to Ihe State, shall be sold st auction for redeeming and reimbursing the safety fund, ao that a loss on any hills issued under this system cannot occur, and the hills of a tailed hanR will be received by the others as much as thouiri it had not tailed. Sec. 14 provides tux clos'tngan institution when tlio Slate bonds are not provided for and redeemed hy the institution, and for transcending Ihe provisions of this act. Sec. 15 provioVs specifically for closing np an insti tution; that the ossets and property pleirged by the schedtilo shall be sold on thirty days notice, of the State stocks, as the case may be; and when they are insufficient to redeem the crrculaimir bills and liabili. ties of the Stale, shall proceed to sell the privale pro- Rerty of ihe directors first, and next that of the stock-olders, wilh a provision, by wleirh a person mny pay his portion according to tho schedule, and prevent its sale as schedule property , but not as thst of a stockhol der or director. Sec. 1G provides for s Stole revenue of one percent, upon State bonds delivered to institution.. This will afford a certain revenue, according to the banking capital of the Slate, which cannot be evaded by a failure to declare a ftrll dividend or otherwise; it also pro vides safety fund for the immediate redemption of bills, which Ihe State is permuted to use at lour per cent, per anmim, tor the bewlit ol the lund, winch might be used Hi iHtnving home our loretgn slocks, and save the interest on them in the Hiais at least; this fund might be increased by Ihe banks, from lime lotitnA, for the nee of IheStalo, if necessary, the hanks receiving tlie interest on the spocifio increase. Thus doing away the necessity of sending off Stale slocks and doing our business upon our own means, as every country, Mate, and individual ouirlil to do, Sec. 17 provides for making cernfrcales or Stale bonds of a denonii-natrorr as low as twenty dollaro. This is done to aecoimrrodate lbs most humble stock' holder; for it is Ihe intention that the poorest citizen, II he choose, may he a stockholder, and as tar as prac ticablo, to make the interest in at co-extensire with the elective franchise -a system owned, sustained anil usori by th iMople. and. bv this, Ilea smallest as wen as largest sturnwiuiuer may go in or out or aa institution at pleasure See. It) defines the periodic! reports lobe made out snd publish! tl by tho hanks, by which their business rs lo ba correctly repertrd, and posted up in tho banking house whore all may examiue. Sec. l'J defines what and how much real estate may be held by a baak, and tor what purposes pur- enssea ana sold, tie. Bee. SO shews how sails may ba- brought and sua. tamed by tlia banking institutions; that lands sold by sheriff on judgments for or against ouch banks, shall be sold without amiraisal. Sec. SI declares lbs sitarra of an institution to ba personal property, so that in Ihe transfer of stock tlia real estate of the schedule is also transferred wilh it; and while slums will stsnd at a nominal amount upon the books, their vnlive will he governed by the land in the schedtilo, affording aafe and convenient facilities for a transfer of land without the usual routine of in- voslitralinir titles at every sale Son. UU provi-a-s that anystockhoiirer or creditor io an amount of a thousand dollars, rouv taka ths steps defined for an investigation into the nwrnigeincnt, af fairs, and safety of any institution, at any lime. See. fi.t nrnviuVs tlia manner ill which persons may loin anv instilulionr so that no nersnn can bo rejected who eomes no to the provisions IBM ujw praeiaeiy like the elective franchise, which defines Uie qnalifi. eatinna on which all msv eniov it. Set). 24. shows how contmcts and bills shall be slimed, and bv whom: also thst ths bsnks shall never put any of their bills tt eircuhtion when Ihey have less than twelve and a half per cent, of specio on hand of aU Ihe bills the mtv have out. This may seem a small sum to keep al first eight, but it will be rocolleeUd they havo State boats wltkli, at 7 per cent., will be better than specie to redeem with; so that they will have in. fact, at starting, sixty-two and a half percent; ot their capital for redemption. Sec. 25 rcpeula the lews and parts of laws conflicting with this. By adopting this system, (or one similar,) herewith proposed, our State at once becomes a desirable location for the emigrant with capital; by purchasing in Ohio, he obtains land on which he can receive his dividends of stook, and rent or till it at tlie same time. With the dividends be receives he is enabled to add . yearly to the exwting improvements, and ie thereby ' increasing, also, in those same yearly improvements, Ihe security of the bank they are in. Suppose a farmer has $2000 stock, and the dividends are six pel cent he clears his stock in eleven years. Or suppose he every year expended his dividend, in beauti- , tying and improving, nsw fencing and ditching, what would bo the increased' value of his farm and crop at the end of eleven years! Or suppose he expended these dividends in thoroughly educating a son, who thereby might be an honor to his family and name and who, without that education, would bo subject to the schemes and duplicity of those wht llnve so long made Uie farmer and working man believe that only a favored1 few were capable oi under-standing lite mysteries of banking. All1 will perceive that eleven years is the time in which the principal is compounded at six per cent. and each may tell for , himself whether banking-is good business when they clear on- what nattually paid in by tht ttochholden in some of our present banks, forty or fifty per cent, per annum; but those are mere shaving shops, cliarterei lor trie accommodation oj otuineu. 1 his system will be to the State, what the blood is the human system, n will originate and circulate the same way. Every oitizen will be interested in sustaining it, because It sustains the State. The safe ty-fund, while it is furnished by Mie people, it sue tains thorn and whether an individual be a stookhol- er ot not, be has an interest, because the system wilt constantly reduce the taxes, until they become nomi- , nai; lor, an win perceive that as business increases, the bank capital will increase; with an increase of capital, comes an increase of revenue from thorn ae well as a fund fur the use of the Stale; which fund is also adding increased permanency and confidence to the banks which form 1L Future Legislatures, after little practico of tlie system, may so arrange in using the safety fund that the Gbunty Treasurer may be relioved from coming yearly, at a fjreav expense, to Columbus, to settle their nccounts Bad Slate disbursements can be made with the greatest safety and facility, without ths possibility of loss or sequestra-tion by agents. In the same manner, after a little ex perience, ttns-salety fund may be made useful in many of tho departments of Slate business. If a well regulated banking system was ever required by any people in any Shite or country, it is believed to be particularly so nt this time, when the great proportion of Iho capital which former Legislatures havo thought necessary to Ihe business of loss population, is diverted or. inadequate to business ns-cessitics.The system adopted should be free; yet it should. n securing equal liberty, be restrictive enough to pre vent licentiousness, and no more; and while it per- ' feetly protccta-the public and billltoldor, must yet con-lain inducements for Ihe stockholder. Tliese I have endeavored to producer for while it lays the stockhol der under great and ocrtain responsibilities lor propor management, it is like the law ot capital punishment, while it protects all, H affects none but those who commit tlie breach. V honorable gentlemen will devote a little lime to the map of the Stale, and see what , portion of its business is now aCTorrnnoffe d with the necessary Business medium, anrf there act upon those principles of policy, justice, and equity, with which 1 believe them, endowed, ibero will be little fear iu expecting Iheir prompt and decisive action at this very important period.

One hundred millions of days, or two Inin-broughf into uss ana adopted in an age aixl generation dred and seventy-six thousand1 one hundred and twelve whose systems ol business, education, and enterprise were as much' adopted to the present age and genera- tion as tile present banking system now is. Improve- ments i agriculture, commerce, anJ manufactures, and the developments of scienco, are daily presenting new incentives to enterprise and liiuustry in the van- ous avoeations of life, while thatsystem by which the medium of all business transactions is furnished re- mains as it was fixed and used whore Iho customs and laws were a bar to wholesome competition, Whatever pretended, improvements have been made upon lb Venitiant Senoesn, or (later; Amsterdam system o plan, as exemplified in the present or Eng- lisli system, have only, in their operation, taken from the primitive system its best features, and placed mero stiblerfuges in their stead. When paper was first m ttituted, it was the result ol necessity and require- ments of eonvenience, in the transmission of the means of payment, from one point to another, with the greatest possible safely and facility. I need not state that organized hands of brigands made the first J.l. I 0 :! l !l necessary,. aitu uie supply oi armies aornau re.uireu the latter. Thus,. Iben, originated the use and circo- lation of t aper representative of property, which, while a true representative, possessed all the value of the original, improved by whatever facility in trans- mission its nature was endowed with. Nor were theso the only purposes a paper medium has been found ca- pablo of truly subserving: it has been found capable, and may safely servo to prevent revolutions and" re- vulsions in the monetary world, by affording an ex- pansive or contractive medium, adapting itself in aiinntity, williout change in value, to any increase or epression in the business demands of a country. I am aware all will say this is the great object so do- sirable to be accomplished: and I will say here, and prove it, that snch a medium can only be furnished through a paper representative, of a bona Rile princi- pal, capable of prompt redemption. 1 say a paper medium only is capable ol expansion and contraction, because the metallic medium always has, from its in- stittition, changed fljuanlity for value with an increase or decrease of demand1. Proofs of this assertion are in the possession of every business man of onr eoun- try: the Romans reduced Ihe value of their coin call- ed an ass, which, weighing one pound, was, during a piessure, reduced to the weight of a single ounce, and yet retained the value of tho pound. Even at this hour, coin and bullion bear a higher price here and in New York than a month ago, leaving an amount to nay a debt sow it oould not have then done. WlionI speak of the principle of banking, I mean tho issuing s repretcntativc of actually valuable, avail- able property, redeemable on demand. When I speak of a system of banking, I mean the mode or fashion undor this principle. When I speak of tlie subler- fuges of the English system, 1 mean tho issuing of s representative as a circulating medium by legal privil- egc, without any principal, or ability lo redeem when demanded, lea-sing the holder liable to loss by failure or depreciation; for hy that system, (which !b our present one,) Ihe luws permit the issuing of a greater amount of representative than it requires actual princi- pal; thus leaving the medium subject to fluctuations from two causes, first, from an inorease or diminution of the quantity, the valuo varies; second, the want of proper and certain ultimate security, brings the interest and safety of the hill holder constantly in conflict with the cupidity ol tho banner, prodocing pressures and panics, and those alternative floods and scarcity ofcir- dilating medium so injurious to legitimate business and ruinous to the enterprising portion of men; rob- bing industry ofits reward, and leaving useful acquire- ments in the arts, sciences, or literature, unemployed; prostrating confidence in each other, and breaking down nil barriers to vice and licentiousness; leaving a circulating medium, can he safely lo all furnished, t virtue and morality to doubtfully atrtigglo for a fool- revulsion, ruinous in its effects and disastrous in con-hold among men. All know this effect; all anknowl- sequences, must soon ensue) or the people of Ohio edge the cause; all would remedy tliese evils; and b come hewers of wood and drawers of water, for nearly all differ as to the specfic mode of reform. By those of whunv she hi now the envied competitor In divesting ourselves of all prejudice and personal in- the advancement of Ihoseiustixntion which make men terest, we may, alter takings comprehensive view of wiser, better, and happier. Y, rthout it, every inccn-our whole country, and contrasting its form of govern- live lo industry and enterprise is withdrawn, the ai nicnt, the nature and habits of its population, ks clr- cumulated produce of years of labor and frugality is male, soil, and immense internal resources, form some reduced within the grasp of those very monopolies, estimate of the quantity and quality of business medi- against which tqwtl rightt has so long and unequally urn required for carrying on and' protecting the inter- waged her unceasing war, and for the final overthrow esls and objects of the most active and ingenious of which, she now calls all who will strike for De-people on the globe; a peoplo whoso enterprise) and mnrrney to her standard.

In order to the full enjoy- firm. mentof those boasted "equal rights and privileges," All must perceive that the political horizon of tho reform in tho character and origin of the 6uing medi. Wotd ptirU.nj9 a coming storm, which-, when it breaks tin, has been declared for throughout our country; that upon ln0 nations, may involve even onr peaceful and reform is HOW required, not at Ihe hands of a party, enneilialino rennhlie; fnr h,f,iri:iln,l ru.Him.rr.ntau cnn. but from those m rao.. , to whom lias bcor. oonfidtd no .ni oiiu uij v. iuBi,.iuuu. nmiuuKu 111 mo general declaration, the people may not havo defin- ed tho desired reform in detail, they have spoken in very act for ttrtain ultimate Kcurity to tho bill holder, and an abrogation of monoply.

Legislatures, as well as individuals, in a few years past, have been enamored wilh the policy of borrowing money abroad in order to briiio- in foreiitn capital, as though it was a clear gain, forgetting that Iheso debts I aro compounding thouvsilvi's into a rum- (jus burthen, requinr for their support the surplus-products of onr Stated Dot further, suppose our 8tate debt for the last ten years has been five millions, we have in thai time borrowed from yesr to year the money to pay the interest with, which with the attendant expenses has compounded the principal. Now if we ntireue the same policy for Iho next ten years, and in the same way borrow for present and future demands, who can say what our obligations to foreigners will be in 18501 fifty millions at lenst. What is to repay this debt? actual surplus produce of labor. Let men one year, being the whole ol lire actnal laboring portion of our population. When these debts are created!, what 3o we actually get in lieu! Why, many will say, we get money to cany on our public improvements anrf pay interest. Let us see: uur commissioners iransterttio stock" and receive permission to draw on the purchasers; they sell their drafts in Now York, and gel permission to draw on the purchaser there; they again sell their drafts to banks fn this Slate for their bills, which are used in carrying on the objects of the roan. These stocKs, then, were considered, as they are-, the best se- euritiesof onr country; and among the stocks of for- oign markets, those of Ohio are pre-eminent in credit, What did we actually get for ours! Nothing but our own paper after all; and yet, under our present sys- tern it was the only alternative, being art best an ex- change of credit, leaving ourselves burdened with the interest of the amount of tlie trade. By this stock trailing, we are yet governed in our essential intcrosts hy foreigners; fur the amount of interest annually go- : . ,. . J ing ih oi our country, oy compounder against us, loaves the monetary governnrrnnt of onr country in their hands. Our General Government hi composed of three distinct and separate powers, viz: Tlie politi- cal, the monetary, and the religious. An union of these tends to aristocracy and monarchy. Iiy plac- ing her agents in Wall slreet, England hag furnished facilities and credit with which her iwinufar-tiires have been sent into the remotest corners of oht country; and our State stocks, after various changes, have been the payment received. Whenever the stocks crentcd failed to-conae up to tins excess of manufactures which she has sent us over and above our experts, her emis- sarics, guidrng with marked hands the very councils of our country, have produced another batch, adding to her power for accomplishing new schemes and designs, Let thoso who doubt this look at her interconrse with old Spain; herself bankrupt, using her bankruptcy to suck the lite-blood ol those she consorts with. Dona- parte was the only power which over truely understood and evaded her wily schemes in finance. "Prance," said he, "mtrst make her currency as cheap as her neighbor's, in order lo be independent and compete with them." Volumes might be written, filled with facts upon this, by far, the most interesting anbject be- fore Ihe country. Had we never sent abroad our obli- gallons, and had we not imported more as a nation than we exported, then our great public improvements would have been a monument of our industry and en terprise. But viewing them as the medium through which we are increasing a foreign debt, they contain but little applause for our financial State policy, Ohio, however, has only followed other older States in thus pulling into the hands of foreigners the most ef- ficient and active power of our country that of regu- rating credit and currency. Vet we have still the power and' means of remedy, as I shall endeavor to show, bv imitating those States in the proper reform. The subject of finance, and a cfrcnruling medium for tho transaction of business, at this lime claims the disinterested action of all who feel an interest in the welfare and prosperity of otti citizens or State, and renders a minute and thorough investigation, with prompt decision, obligatory, In order to correct and judicious action, our present situation and prospects for tho fiiluro must go far in determining a decision still keeping in view that re- firm is a stepping-stone to peritenon, Tlie business interests, to be consulted in the pas- sageofa properly restricted generallawupon banking, are diffused throughout all departments, extending intj our domestic and social relativjirs, of every nature. Without some better and mors beneficial system than the present, by which a representative of property, as ' lending for plunder and power among the wreck of nations, will scarcely allow us to sit in ppntter beneath our own ,),. nn& fi ne mp-, prepared to protect Iheir fruit. Should England go into a war with equal powers, her resources, now difTusrd through our country, would at once be drawn from us; and Ihe blTuct of such a measure may be but partially estimnt- ett hy the result which I demand for payment cf bil- ,nce, bj onr importers- produced year ago. The imprtpr, compelled payment from the Jobbers; lo mpet it, the Jobbers despatched their agents to their customers throughout the country, the country mcr- chanl, were compelled to call upon their customers; hrt ,(,, 011r people made up I general tribute to Eng. an j ) ,,.,, ror trumpery and gewgaws.

In nrranglne the proposition or law, herewith pro- sented for the consideration nnd correction of your lion- eiectorn 01 mm. ortiir, anu rniner limn a pmsiisin uenin would leave them to that inglorious dissolution which competition must surely bring them, Differing, as this proposed system does, from all others extant, the term " State Banking System of uiuo lias be I been donned most appropriate; and refer. ence to, Bnd'partial'oxplanalion of, the sections thereof, will tot, it is hoped) incur the charge of verbosity or egotism in one whose desire is the " greatest good to trie greatest number." Sec. 1: In tRis section hi provided Ihe appointment of Bank Commissioners, and theirdbliee defined, and security to be given. - ' Sec. 3 contains further duties and powers of ths commissioners. Sec. 3 provides- for the preparation, by the commissioners, of all' the circulating bills to be issued. By this, all the bills will be alike of each denomination, and soon almost every person' who handles money will become acquainted with it, and capable of easily detecting eounterfeils; for it is only by custom and acquaintance with general appearance that the best judges become qualified. bee. 4 is bnt an extension ot section three B description of the bills.. . Sec. 5 defines-how the bills shell be countersigned, leaving the designation of the person or officer for that duty to the amendments to be mado. It provides for numbering and registering all lite bills called fur Hi the duplicate certificates of the commissioners, by which the certificate, in the bonds of the institution, Is to guard against frauds, should Ihe officer, deputed to counter sign the bills, attempt to oonnterteK the tilling up; it also defines that the security given to Ihe State shall be in real estate or Ohio State stocks,. actually transferred lo the State for redemption of the bills only; and defines punishment for malfeaname. Sec. 6: This section defines further duties of the commissioners, in the furnishing certificates of the amount schedule received.. Also, that thsy shall deliver, at the same time,. State bonds .to-half the amount of land conveyed,, which bonds can only be legally transferred by the institution in redemption of circulating bills, when acceptable to the holder; it fixes the interest on those bonds at seven per cent, per annum. By this, it will be perceived, those bonds will be better to redeem wilh, in Now-York, when required; than specie in the vaults;, for a bank can assign them for any given time agreed upon, and redeem them at seven per cent., or Ihey may conditionally assign them, and leave them only to bo affecled by aa accumulation of bills; it will be perceived, that this arrangement will always ftirnisli the merchant a cheap exchange on New-Tiork, and make Ohio money at par there. Sec. 7 defines tho inoipicnt stops for an institution; notice; what to contain; and fifty thousand dollars the least capital ol a bank. r-.ee. a renin res certificate ot printer ol notice. Iiy using the schedule, which is reiitiired to be made as a modo of conveyance, much' labor and oxpense will be saved in making and recording deeds. The value of Ihe land, being that of tho oounty assessors, will be permanent security, in most cases, for five times the amount, as the cupidity of the owners, since its list- nil and valuation, has been exerted upon succeeding assessors to procure a low appraisal to lessen taxes. Sec. 9 provides a checK against truss cnrtilica.es ol auditors, by bringing ihoso certificates under ihe recorder's comparison wilh trie records of the county; and the county clerk can ascertain if any error exist or udzmnnts be standing, and have tho schedtilo cor rected before recording, and lilies to be examined by the board. Sec. 10 defines the duties of Iho officer or person who shall countersign the circulating bills, and deliver them lo tho holder of Iho certificate of the commis sioners, obtained on deposit of ihe schedule, and also countersign and return the State bonds presented with said cerlifieaie of the board, and give a certificate, authorizing Ihe commencement of business. Sec. II defines the powors and privileges of the in stitutions; what they mny and may not do; defines, in blank, what interest they may take; tells what they may deal in; but shall not put in circulation bills of oaiiss or persons out oi nits apaie. mis provision will protect the people from impositions in foreign paper; if the banks choose to take foreign paper, they can only give currency to it in that way, and can have lit tle inducement to Ihe circulution or money tor a sesson, to be afterwards shaved by the brokers, to the loss of the small holder generally. This is one of the most essential points in which tho people have a right, and aro expecting, to be protected. fee. vi providos now uie oni3 snail be procured and paid for. Sec. 13 provides for winding uirmstitnuons wnicn fail to redeem on presentation; sbows what process after a protest; that the safety fund shall redeem the bills of o failed bank; that tlie property pledged, and stocks sold to Ihe State, shall be sold st auction for redeeming and reimbursing the safety fund, ao that a loss on any hills issued under this system cannot occur, and the hills of a tailed hanR will be received by the others as much as thouiri it had not tailed. Sec. 14 provides tux clos'tngan institution when tlio Slate bonds are not provided for and redeemed hy the institution, and for transcending Ihe provisions of this act. Sec. 15 provioVs specifically for closing np an insti tution; that the ossets and property pleirged by the schedtilo shall be sold on thirty days notice, of the State stocks, as the case may be; and when they are insufficient to redeem the crrculaimir bills and liabili. ties of the Stale, shall proceed to sell the privale pro- Rerty of ihe directors first, and next that of the stock-olders, wilh a provision, by wleirh a person mny pay his portion according to tho schedule, and prevent its sale as schedule property , but not as thst of a stockhol der or director. Sec. 1G provides for s Stole revenue of one percent, upon State bonds delivered to institution.. This will afford a certain revenue, according to the banking capital of the Slate, which cannot be evaded by a failure to declare a ftrll dividend or otherwise; it also pro vides safety fund for the immediate redemption of bills, which Ihe State is permuted to use at lour per cent, per anmim, tor the bewlit ol the lund, winch might be used Hi iHtnving home our loretgn slocks, and save the interest on them in the Hiais at least; this fund might be increased by Ihe banks, from lime lotitnA, for the nee of IheStalo, if necessary, the hanks receiving tlie interest on the spocifio increase. Thus doing away the necessity of sending off Stale slocks and doing our business upon our own means, as every country, Mate, and individual ouirlil to do, Sec. 17 provides for making cernfrcales or Stale bonds of a denonii-natrorr as low as twenty dollaro. This is done to aecoimrrodate lbs most humble stock' holder; for it is Ihe intention that the poorest citizen, II he choose, may he a stockholder, and as tar as prac ticablo, to make the interest in at co-extensire with the elective franchise -a system owned, sustained anil usori by th iMople. and. bv this, Ilea smallest as wen as largest sturnwiuiuer may go in or out or aa institution at pleasure See. It) defines the periodic! reports lobe made out snd publish! tl by tho hanks, by which their business rs lo ba correctly repertrd, and posted up in tho banking house whore all may examiue. Sec. l'J defines what and how much real estate may be held by a baak, and tor what purposes pur- enssea ana sold, tie. Bee. SO shews how sails may ba- brought and sua. tamed by tlia banking institutions; that lands sold by sheriff on judgments for or against ouch banks, shall be sold without amiraisal. Sec. SI declares lbs sitarra of an institution to ba personal property, so that in Ihe transfer of stock tlia real estate of the schedule is also transferred wilh it; and while slums will stsnd at a nominal amount upon the books, their vnlive will he governed by the land in the schedtilo, affording aafe and convenient facilities for a transfer of land without the usual routine of in- voslitralinir titles at every sale Son. UU provi-a-s that anystockhoiirer or creditor io an amount of a thousand dollars, rouv taka ths steps defined for an investigation into the nwrnigeincnt, af fairs, and safety of any institution, at any lime. See. fi.t nrnviuVs tlia manner ill which persons may loin anv instilulionr so that no nersnn can bo rejected who eomes no to the provisions IBM ujw praeiaeiy like the elective franchise, which defines Uie qnalifi. eatinna on which all msv eniov it. Set). 24. shows how contmcts and bills shall be slimed, and bv whom: also thst ths bsnks shall never put any of their bills tt eircuhtion when Ihey have less than twelve and a half per cent, of specio on hand of aU Ihe bills the mtv have out. This may seem a small sum to keep al first eight, but it will be rocolleeUd they havo State boats wltkli, at 7 per cent., will be better than specie to redeem with; so that they will have in. fact, at starting, sixty-two and a half percent; ot their capital for redemption. Sec. 25 rcpeula the lews and parts of laws conflicting with this. By adopting this system, (or one similar,) herewith proposed, our State at once becomes a desirable location for the emigrant with capital; by purchasing in Ohio, he obtains land on which he can receive his dividends of stook, and rent or till it at tlie same time. With the dividends be receives he is enabled to add . yearly to the exwting improvements, and ie thereby ' increasing, also, in those same yearly improvements, Ihe security of the bank they are in. Suppose a farmer has $2000 stock, and the dividends are six pel cent he clears his stock in eleven years. Or suppose he every year expended his dividend, in beauti- , tying and improving, nsw fencing and ditching, what would bo the increased' value of his farm and crop at the end of eleven years! Or suppose he expended these dividends in thoroughly educating a son, who thereby might be an honor to his family and name and who, without that education, would bo subject to the schemes and duplicity of those wht llnve so long made Uie farmer and working man believe that only a favored1 few were capable oi under-standing lite mysteries of banking. All1 will perceive that eleven years is the time in which the principal is compounded at six per cent. and each may tell for , himself whether banking-is good business when they clear on- what nattually paid in by tht ttochholden in some of our present banks, forty or fifty per cent, per annum; but those are mere shaving shops, cliarterei lor trie accommodation oj otuineu. 1 his system will be to the State, what the blood is the human system, n will originate and circulate the same way. Every oitizen will be interested in sustaining it, because It sustains the State. The safe ty-fund, while it is furnished by Mie people, it sue tains thorn and whether an individual be a stookhol- er ot not, be has an interest, because the system wilt constantly reduce the taxes, until they become nomi- , nai; lor, an win perceive that as business increases, the bank capital will increase; with an increase of capital, comes an increase of revenue from thorn ae well as a fund fur the use of the Stale; which fund is also adding increased permanency and confidence to the banks which form 1L Future Legislatures, after little practico of tlie system, may so arrange in using the safety fund that the Gbunty Treasurer may be relioved from coming yearly, at a fjreav expense, to Columbus, to settle their nccounts Bad Slate disbursements can be made with the greatest safety and facility, without ths possibility of loss or sequestra-tion by agents. In the same manner, after a little ex perience, ttns-salety fund may be made useful in many of tho departments of Slate business. If a well regulated banking system was ever required by any people in any Shite or country, it is believed to be particularly so nt this time, when the great proportion of Iho capital which former Legislatures havo thought necessary to Ihe business of loss population, is diverted or. inadequate to business ns-cessitics.The system adopted should be free; yet it should. n securing equal liberty, be restrictive enough to pre vent licentiousness, and no more; and while it per- ' feetly protccta-the public and billltoldor, must yet con-lain inducements for Ihe stockholder. Tliese I have endeavored to producer for while it lays the stockhol der under great and ocrtain responsibilities lor propor management, it is like the law ot capital punishment, while it protects all, H affects none but those who commit tlie breach. V honorable gentlemen will devote a little lime to the map of the Stale, and see what , portion of its business is now aCTorrnnoffe d with the necessary Business medium, anrf there act upon those principles of policy, justice, and equity, with which 1 believe them, endowed, ibero will be little fear iu expecting Iheir prompt and decisive action at this very important period.
